I fixed it Search works great doesn't it...I checked up on change password and found it in there - it was the password change in my CPanel that was a problem...
For Newbies...if you change you password to access the administration area of your host server you must also change a file in xoops. So for example I have Fantastico for administration - chenged the password and then got a XOOPS error.
What I had to do was got into the file manager in Fantastico and file the file
public_html/mainfile.php
Open it to edit it
When you scroll down through that file you will find this:
// Database Hostname
// Hostname of the database server. If you are unsure, 'localhost' works in most cases.
define('XOOPS_DB_HOST', 'localhost');
// Database Username
// Your database user account on the host
define('XOOPS_DB_USER', '
youraccount');
// Database Password
// Password for your database user account
define('XOOPS_DB_PASS', '
youraccount password');
change your password - touch nothing else! save the file and all will be well.
